You can check an application called AutoTimeZone on App World

The blackberry calendar works great once you figure out the details. When you create an appt, the default time zone for that appt is the same time zone you have your phone set to. But there is a field to specify a different time zone for that appt. For example, if your phone is set to CST & you create an appt for 5:00 EST, when you save the appt it will display on your calendar as 4:00. When you travel to the eastern time zone (& change the time zone on your bb), the appt will now display at 5:00.

No kidding! I’m enroute from Charleston, SC(EDT)to Albuquerque, NM(MDT) via Houston, TX(CDT), and I almost missed my connecting flight because my BB Curve is still displaying the origin time zone’s time. C’mon RIM… Get it together! Syncing to local time without screwing up the calendar should be rock-bottom BASIC!

Truly frustrating, as it’s illogical. If I’m traveling to TX from AZ, and setting appts. for while I’m in TX – of course, I would enter them in TX time. It seems quite convoluted that I would need to first figure out – now, really, 2pm TX time is actually 12pm AZ time, so I’ll enter this future appt. for noon . . . necessitating, of course, that I remember this conversion each time I speak to someone in TX with whom I’m scheduled to meet or trying to find available time to meet? Crazy.

No, they haven’t fixed this little problem yet when I got my new BB 8310 (Curve) in January 2009.

I don’t get it,my blackberry curve will not update time zones automatically? Is this a joke?! If i look under the “network” time it’s sometimes correct when i arrive in a new destination but even then it won’t display it or switch on it’s own. It may seem like a small detail but when you travel as much as i do,not uncommon to be in more than 1 time zone in a day let alone week, this is a major problem I am flabbergasted has been overlooked and from what I’m hearing for quite sometime..very poor..please fix with a patch or whatever,time to work your magic guys!

It wouldn’t even have to change the timezone for me. All I would like is to have the local time DISPLAYED alongside, or optionally, instead of my timezone. Just tell me what time it is, that’s all I want……….

Is there a way to set your blackberry so that it updates the time automatically when you change time zones?
